With over nine years of dedicated experience in supporting children and adolescents navigating trauma, anxiety and depression, I offer tailored guidance for those feeling overwhelmed by overthinking or striving for overachievement. Whether confronting childhood trauma resurfacing in adulthood or seeking personal growth, I prioritize leveraging individual strengths to facilitate progress. We are all trying to achieve something in life. We all want better for ourselves. Life can be hectic at times and throw curveballs at us. We are required to adapt to the various obstacles that we come across.
I am multicultural competent and will always keep your values in mind. My goal is to make sure that you are safe and equipped to handle life's ever changing circumstances. I pride myself on being personable and do not consider myself to be your average therapist. I will laugh with you, be silent with you and whatever you need to feel comfortable.
I do offer free consultations to make sure we are a good fit, let's connect. A sense of connection, safety, honesty & open-mindedness are the values that I strive for. Clients can expect a relaxed environment coupled with passion & non-judgement. I do accept multiple different insurances, please see below.
